Angel Packs™ are designed to support children when an adult in their life is diagnosed with cancer. Packs offer engaging activities, coping tools, and a parent guidebook to facilitate age-appropriate conversations. Each pack helps families navigate the challenges of cancer while providing reassurance and valuable support strategies.
Angel Packs™ are free to cancer patients in our service area, available for purchase as a gift for a loved one, or accessible through select employers.
Each pack contains age-appropriate resources, including educational materials about cancer, fun activities, and comfort items such as Rory the Lion, a journal, or a medical play kit. Angel Packs™ are available for Children (ages 4-8), Pre-Teens (9-13), and Teens (14-18).
Current cancer patients who are Minnesota residents or living or being treated in Douglas or St. Croix Counties in Wisconsin are eligible to receive an Angel Pack™ for free.

My kids received their Angel Packs™ tonight and they were so appreciated. They opened them and read through all the books. They loved the activities! It was nice to see them excited and interested when there has been so much going on.

When my husband started his cancer treatment, his provider gave our four children your wonderful Angel Packs™. What a great aid in helping explain, demonstrate, and reassure them. They loved Rory and held him close. We truly appreciate your mission.

I think the Angel Packs™ meant a lot to my kids, because they had something that was just for them during those early weeks after my diagnosis. It was like they had someone looking out for them while their mom was busy, and having the kits tailored to different ages meant that my kids were getting information appropriate for each of them.

We really appreciated receiving the Angel Packs™ and treasure them. All the focus is on me right now and my kids love having something for them. My son sleeps with Rory the Lion every night. Thank you.
